High-flow water release set for dam

The Bureau of Reclamation, will conduct a second high-flow experiment (HFE), where the bypass tubes at Glen Canyon Dam will be opened on the morning of Nov. 11.

The six-day experiment will evaluate short-duration, high-volume dam releases over a 10-year period in an attempt to mimic the naturally occurring flash floods that have been absent along the Colorado River since the construction of the dam.
